Pull Up Your Pants Day

As I grow older, I find myself becoming that cranky old guy whenever I see one of the younger crowd walking down the street with their pants drooping low, providing me with an unfettered view of their Fruit of the Looms.

"Pull up your pants, get a job!" I mutter, not always under my breath.

I'm in luck. Today is "Pull Up Your Pants" Day!

The brainchild of two teachers at Plantation High School who grew annoyed at seeing low-slung students in the hallway, the faux-holiday is symbolic. The cranky old guy in me wonders why every day isn't Pull Up Your Pants Day in high school, but the kids music is probably too loud to hear my complaining.
